 ### Verification
 
 > The compute instances created in this tutorial will not have permission to complete this section. **Run the following commands from the same machine used to create the compute instances**.
 
 Retrieve the `kubernetes-the-hard-way` static IP address:
 
+```gcloud```
 ```
 KUBERNETES_PUBLIC_ADDRESS=$(gcloud compute addresses describe kubernetes-the-hard-way \
   --region $(gcloud config get-value compute/region) \
   --format 'value(address)')
 ```
